At Joy Machine, ‘Feel Free’ explores the struggle between chaos and control through new works by Rachel Hayden, Paulina Ho, Hanna Lee Joshi, and Jeremy Miranda. Each artist captures the ephemeral beauty in life's transient moments.

Rachel Hayden’s compositions blend human emotion with nature, creating uncanny harmonies in a checkerboard of fruit and figures. Her ant crawling on an arched brow hints at fleeting understanding.

Hanna Lee Joshi’s textured gradients reflect inarticulable experiences through her nude figures. In 'Held like a flower', the interplay between hair and flower signifies an unspoken connection.

Paulina Ho’s soft landscapes, sourced from thrift shop textiles, evoke the cyclical nature of life with bold gradients and frayed edges. Inspired by Moorish architecture in Andalusia, her work captures movement and evolution.

Jeremy Miranda’s painterly compositions reveal the lived history of his canvases, acknowledging that memory shapes his art. A stock pot and asparagus bound in bands symbolize impermanence and fleeting moments.
